# The LODGE! # - A Private Ranch Retreat only 10 miles to the ARK Encounter.

This memorable house is the perfect home base for your trip to Williamstown. Within minutes of the Ark Encounter. Guests will find three bedrooms featuring a mix of two queen beds and four bunk beds, offering plenty of space for everyone. The two bathrooms include both a bathtub and a shower, making it easy to refresh after a day of exploring. This quaint and charming house provides a nice balance of comfort and convenience. We're happy to assist with any questions while you stay at our home. The kitchen is spacious and will not disappoint.

This is an active working Whitetail Deer and Elk Conservation Ranch. We have miles of hiking trails, a stream for fishing and the most beautiful sunsets ever. For a small fee, and schedules permit, we offer a small tour with feeding of treats to Deer, Elk and Fallow. We also offer a more vast experience of trail rides on UTV's or ATV's if desired. This is truly a unique experience you will never forget.

This was the BEST vrbo we’ve ever stayed in. It was immaculately clean, gorgeous property, secluded and very well stocked with everything your family would need to stay for a few days. The beds were comfortable, kitchen was huge, washer and dryer was an added bonus! WiFi worked well, close to Walmart and a Dollar General. We visited The Ark Encounter and Creation Museum while we were there and celebrated my daughter’s 13th birthday. The hosts were very responsive and so kind. We will definitely be coming back in the future. Highly recommend this place.
Amazing view
